Legion142 Vancouver West Point Grey

West Point Grey Legion 142 in Vancouver appreciates funding provided by the Federal Government during the Covid 19 pandemic, to help offset the lack of revenue. See more information on our website. legion142.ca

We’re working on the things that matter most to you - from restarting our economy, to helping make schools safer, to getting you the support you need. That’s what we covered in our Cabinet and caucus meetings today, and what we’ll stay focused on in the weeks and months to come.

We are now making corrective payments related to deceased benefit recipients who, between 2003-2010, received a disability pension or certain related benefits that we administer. Find out more at: veterans.gc.ca/eng/about-vac/…

When the US, our friend & ally, was attacked on 9/11, we were there for America that day & through the Afghanistan campaign. Canadians will not forget the sacrifices made, and I know the American military & everyday Americans will not forget those sacrifices either.
